Fortunately, all of those super macho Rob Cohen movies (F&TF series, Triple X, Stealth, etc) seem to have 13 year old boys as their target audience. Hopefully this will limit the number of people that a) watch this move and b) have some "pimped" ride that they want to go drifting with.

I think racing in Tokyo is kinda cool cus I think of it as the land of racing. Then when I found out it was gonna be about drifting, that kinda screwed it up for me. It's already been done. It's called INITIAL D!!!!

So they're actually coming out with F&F III?

I liked the first one somewhat...I mean I bought the DVD, but I didn't even waste my time with the second one. I never even saw it.

I liked the first one because it was original, in that it was the first movie I ever saw about the true LA street racing subculture. And, it actually had a story line other than racing...it had racing built into its story line which was about high speed theft!

It had the makings of an interesting concept, but as hollywood movies often do, it took a turn for the worse when every teenager and their [younger] brother needed a "pimped" out car and so the loud fart pipes and clear taillight revolution began.

And the rest is commercialized

Ha ha ha ha!!!

Well, I wouldn't go so far as to say it was a classic, because besides the fact it had an undercover cop, underground fast cars, and stolen DVD players, the storyline was kind of weak and superficial.

I mean, Fight Club and Pulp Fiction are movies that will go down as having classic plot twists and surprises. F&F was a movie about breaking the trust between people the main character cared about, and, oh yeah, there were many fast cars in the movie .

But like I said, I bought the DVD and I usually only do that when I like a movie enough to want to watch it more than once, so yeah, I give it a

well, when i posted the vid i said "drifting" in an non-serious matter, it was in a parking lot done at 1st gear. i honestly just dont have the balls to take my car around a STREET turn sideways at 2nd or 3rd gear. Also, i find drifting more fun AND easier in a cheapER e30 (maybe becaause im not tossing around 35K?)... this movie will be funny to watch, then i can just imagine "drifting" become the new "Street Racing"...just my thoguhts

They actually had an open casting for modified cars a few months back. When i was in the my350z forum, they would post the location of the shoot and ask members to come in 'clubbing attire'. HAHAHAH. I actually thought about going; you never know where youll be discovered. ::MAGNUM::


ps. if you dont get the magnum reference, its from zoolander...
